Re: Newbie: enable portmap



mhm thats what I understood from the message it gets when I try to start it manually:
11/7/07 10:05:53 PM portmap[3738] PID 3677 started this second instance of portmap (the first instance may not be running, as it launches on demand via launchd), exiting!


but the log says rpc for my app failes:
11/7/07 10:04:52 PM firsttry[3731] unable to register (FIRSTTRYPROG, FIRSTTRYVERS, udp).


Regards,
Dominik

Hi,
at university we are working on a sun rpc client/server tool. Running it on
unix is no big deal: write the xdr, generate the stubs compile it and run
it.
the only 'dependency is: portmapper must be running - and thats where I
am stuck on osx 10.5 - how to enable the portmapper... it says it is
launched on demand by launchd and I cant seem to force it to start or
well.. configure launchd to start it)

portmap should launch automatically as soon as an RPC service makes a call
to register its service with portmap (e.g. svc_register(3) or pmap_set(3)).
